I waited over a hour to be called back and then, the whole appointment felt rushed and the lack of desire to help with suggestions. I felt like I was pulling teeth to get any kind of feedback. I probably was their last appointment of the day but no need for me to be rushed or act like it didn’t matter
A Dr. who is patient and kind and cares for his patients. He takes time to explain the whole situation about your care..I recommend him very highly. Thanks DR.Parks.
Met my needs .
Thorough, knowledgeable and professional.
Dr Parks and his PA Tom are the best! They give you all the time you need to get questions answered. I know a total knee replacement is in my future and I have total faith for a great outcome!
Dr. Parks is my orthopaedic hero!
He is so nice and took time to answer all my questions
Great doctor… my only complaint is the long wait times.
The absolute best Orthopedic Surgeon in Alabama. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for hip or knee surgery.
His bedside manner is outstanding, he always have time to talk to you and address your concerns not to mention he did a great job with my surgery.
